The Alpha CEO’s Unloved Wife
Chapter 24
The First Kiss
She examined the bite mark he had left on her neck in the mirror, there was a bruise where his teeth had closed on her, but the skin had only broken at two points where the sharp canines had pierced through. She touched it thoughtfully. She had seen scars like this on other werewolves, both male and female, but most often on the females. Mated pairs often marked each other with their bite, deliberately sinking all the teeth in to cause a scar as unique as a fingerprint.
Baron had reacted on instinct, during the passion of their f–king, she acknowledged. She was his wife legally, and he was a possessive man, even if it was just a marriage of convenience. She suspected, however, from his behaviour, from the bite that was only just restrained from being a full claiming mark, that Baron did not intend to divorce her, that he liked having an omega Corbyn available to f–k at his pleasure.
Which was going to anger Angelique and make Jane the subject of her vitriolic hatred.
She sighed heavily and wore a full t-shirt to hide the mark rather than a singlet–style running top.
She ran to the café, and paused at the solid door, framed by foul stinking garbage bins, and hesitated before knocking. It seemed forever before the door swung open. A whip thin man in a frilled apron and pink singlet, his blond hair pink tipped, looked down at her and raised his eyebrows.
“Well, well,” he commented. “Not what I expected, but it is interesting,” he caught her by the elbow and before she had the chance to reconsider, hauled her into the warmth of the kitchen. “This is Jane,” he announced whilst wrapping an apron around Jane‘s waist with astonishing deft efficiency. “Patrick‘s latest stray. Oh, don‘t be insulted, darling,” he whirled Jane so that she found herself before a sink full of soapy water and
a pile of dishes. “We‘re all his strays.” That was her introduction to the kitchen and its crew, she found out. There were seven staff, all up, four, like herself, came and went, and did the low–skill work of washing and wiping surfaces, but the other three, which included the pink haired James, were skilled, bakers and chefs, who prepped and cooked in preparation for the day ahead, with the transient help providing grunt labor of washing and peeling.
The conversation was sociable, light, and harmless. At the end of four hours, she was set free with another wad of notes, and air kisses. She ran back to the house, bewildered but light–hearted and added the new collection of notes to the growing pile inside a hollowed–out book before returning to the course work on her laptop.

She took the dresses out of closet one by one and photographed them on her, with her face obscured, and saw the bids begin, with a rush of excitement.
